Svenskarnasdag Day - 2008

This means Swedish Heritage Day, but we always just referred to it as The Swedish Picnic...has been at Minnehaha Falls Park every summer as far back as I can remember. Attendance isn't quite what it used to be, but it's still a fun time, and you can still run into a Viking or two. We had some rain sneak in on us that we weren't totally prepared for as well, but we made due. Added a little extra excitement to the day.

#2 is on the way

In case you didn't know, we are expecting child #2, due the end of October. We don't know if it'll be a boy or a girl. Erin was telling everyone we were going to have a boy, and now she says it's going to be a girl and that her name will be Sally. Don't think that part will come true (no offense to anyone with the name Sally). She will be a great big sister. See if you can tell from some of these ultrasound photos.

Marcie and Elena come to visit

BBQ & Blues with Maija and Anders (& Uncle Timmy too)

Went down to Peavey Plaza to check out some good ol' blues and BBQ with the cousin's.

Erin's 3rd Birthday Party

OK, we're long overdue on posting new items to the blog. Life's been a little busy. Anyway, Erin got to pick her theme for the birthday party this year, and Hello Kitty it was! Grammy and Pap made the trip from PA for the festivities. It was a perfect day, and of course, there were lots of presents to be opened.
